Tone: Curious/ Unknown/ Longing
Intro: This poem is about the feelings that you know that are there but you don't know what they're called and then they disappear before you get to actually know them.
Close Your Eyes
Today, I am curious
Today, I know no fall
How far I am above the ground
Who knows
How long I'll fall
It's physics
It's physics
I don't know completely
Why I want to let go
Of the edge
Just to my time
to the grounf
Why do I feel this way?
I have a reason
I know I'm happy
But there's
just
simple
ting that's missing
I don't know what you are
But please,
Just come back already
I can't stand to know you're gone
What ever you are
Please, please come back to me
This 'something' that I can't see
Why
Why have you left?
It's a feeling
Of emptiness
Of loneliness
I like to be alone
but lonely
I need
I need you to stay
Come back
I say
Please
I need you
And I sit here
For another day
I hear myself
In my head say
I can't take it
A part of me
It just cant seem
To comprehend
What exactly I've lost
Please stop
Wandering
Away...
Come back
I say
And yet
I'm sitting here
Full of fear
That it'll never come back
So,
I try again
And again
Trying to find what I lost
But again
and again
I fail....
If I don't know what I'm looking for then how I can see it when I see it right in front of me
I'm not completely sure
My friends
They hold a meaning to me
But in my life
I'm unsure
What I mean
To myself
And I try and try again
Over and over
What do I need to say
In, order
For me to make it a day
Of remembrance
I don't know where to go
But for now
I'll keep searching
For now
I just want to know
What are you
To me
Why are you
So special
I can't understand
Why something so invisable to me
Has been seen
with they eyes of my heart
I want
to cover
my eyes
but to my demise
my heart can see
things i cant seen
Is it over?
I want it to be over
My heart
Would you
Close your eyes
Oh please?
I don't feel the pain that it's leaving
I don't even know what it is
but apparently you do
And you don't let go
Or shut your eyes
Please let go
My heart
Please
Let go.
Conclusion: Love works in funny ways. When you think you love someone and you find out that you do but then you say, oh not anymore. Then you find someone and they don't feel the same. You reach for people and you try to speak to them in certain ways. They understand you but they don't want to speak to you again. It's a funny concept. That 'something' that you don't know that it's missing until you realize that it was there at one point.
